We have been accused of molesting our grand daughter. As you can imagine , it has upended our lives and we have lost all contact with our grand daughters since this accusation has been leveled. This has been going on for 2 years now and we have never been investigated or approached by the legal system. Our suspicion is that our daughter in law has just made the allegation to manipulate our son.

We finally got to see in writing the allegations in divorce papers served to our son. There is a letter from a counselor stating that in working with our grand daughter nothing was disclosed but some flags went up from statements the mother said and that further investigation was needed if visitation changed. In attorney documents the mother asked that we not be able to see the girls and stated that she had taken the daughters to a doctor and they had vaginal infections, that she had taken the youngest to the Prosecuting Attorney and when the child would not name any names he sent her on to the before mentioned counselor. So basically all we have is a counselor that didn't have anything revealed to her and a mother who has made a lot of accusations.

Our attorney and counselor said that things didn't add up right about the procedure. That we would have been investigated that things were not in the mothers hands but would follow a set procedure. I will investigate public records to see if she really went to the Prosecuting Attorney. I am assuming that if she did go that he didn't find anything that would warrant further investigation.


My question is do we have any recourse? Can we sue for defamation of character? Will a judge look at this paperwork and order an investigation? Can we get the mother to take a psychological evaluation? Most improtantly, can we use this to put the whole thing to rest and see our grand daughters again?

So there IS a temporary no visitation order as far as you are concerned?

It's been asked for but hasn't been to court yet to be decided on.
